Comment on Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada’s (ISED) consultation on the Policy, Licensing and Technical Framework for Supplemental Mobile Coverage by Satellite (SMCS)
OSI Fellows and Junior Fellows submitted this comment in response to ISED’s proposed framework for the allocation of certain radio frequency bands to mobile services coverage via satellite, with the intention of highlighting the potential threats to radio and optical astronomy that could come from these satellites.
This comment was further endorsed by the President of the Canadian Astronomical Society – Société Canadienne d’Astronomie (CASCA), the Executive Director of the Association of Canadian Universities for Research in Astronomy (ACURA), and astronomers from across Canada.

OSI Submission on Core Principles for Space Resource Activities
A team of OSI researchers has made a short submission to the Working Group on Legal Aspects of Space Resource Activities established under the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (UN COPUOS).
The submission focuses on identifying existing core principles for space resource activities. It does not analyse these core principles, nor does it provide a comprehensive overview of all of the rules and principles that may potentially be relevant to space resource activities. This limited scope is consistent with the current ambitions of the Working Group, which also focus on core principles.
